The studio’s greatest asset is the large recording room (90 sqm). With 5.5 meters high ceilings, soundwaves gets the chance to bloom properly. The room offers great opportunities for experimenting with microphone placements.
The live-room stands on its own concrete slab with double exterior walls and ceiling to minimize sound leaking in or out. The inner walls are made of wood and wired for microphones, speakers and for re-amping purposes.
There are two amplifier/song booths with windows facing the live room that supplies good separation between the instruments for live tracking.
During recording, you can adjust your own mix with Hearback-mixers. There are five personal mixers, with two headphone outputs in each providing many possibilities.
The live-room has wooden walls and angled, damped ceilings. Most things sound good in the big room, straight off. Vocals are most often recorded in the live-room. We encourage you to experiment with all the possibilities when it comes to microphone placements. Ambience microphones on the stand, in the kitchen or in the upstairs hall can add a lot to your recording.
There are a lot of fun and odd instruments to color your tracks with. Timpani, pianos, organs, string machines, synths and more.
You can record to 2″ tape or digital. Track live or track-by-track. Work with click or skip it totally. The choice is yours. And the choices are many.
Many possibilities
The live-room has wooden walls and angled and damped ceilings. The room is not completely lifeless but not on the resonant side either. Most things sound good in the big room, straight off. Vocals are more often recorded in the live-room than in the song booths.
Microphone placements
One thing I hope you take the time to experiment with is all the possibilities when it comes to microphone placements. Ambience microphones on the stand, in the kitchen or in the upstairs hall can add a lot to your recording. A nice drum sound is quite possible!
